Looking
for details on a RN officer not listed here yet?Just
e-mail
me, and I might be able to help out.Of
course, any additions, corrections etc. can also be e-mailed.

Note. In naval circles
it is custom to refer to the commander of a vessel as Captain. The Navy
List bears the phrase "in command".
Strictly out of practical considerations
CO (Commanding Officer) is used here on this site. Abbreviations and
explanations can be found at the help page.
